The Others only appear in a few chapters, but we learn lots of interesting little details about them.

"The Other said something in a language that Will

did not know; his voice was like the cracking of ice on a winter lake, and the

words were mocking....

their voices and laughter sharp as icicles"

(Prologue, AGOT)

So the Others have a language, they speak and they laugh. Seems like they have a culture.And an Other is referred to as a 'he'. Are there female Others somewhere, as well as male Others?

Let me know if you'd like me to keep posting tidbits like this during the early script-writing process (:Thanks!X

Really appreciate the insight into your process. Keep it up if you feel like you have the time (:

Sure, your insights are always fascinating. The Night's King's wife was a female 'Other' I guess. Since he 'gave her his seed' does that mean humans and Others can interbreed, perhaps indicating that Others are almost human?

love it, little updates on your projects are nice. Makes it easier to wait

Jason Rattray

I enjoy reading them and getting a bit of insight into your process.

I was wondering about the same thing. I suppose Others can't breed on their own? If so, how was the very very first Other made? By children of the forest? On what purpose?

Arden

Please and thank you! ^_^

Yeah it's suggested repeatedly that Others can reproduce with humans – as well as the Night's King thing, Bran says that “Old Nan told them [that] wildling … women lay with the Others in the Long Night to sire terrible half-human children” (Bran I, AGOT), and Jon similarly says “At Winterfell one of the serving women told us stories … She used to say that there were wildlings who would lay with the Others to birth half-human children” (Jon III, ACOK).
